Since the scum public can’t be trusted to control themselves after drinking a glass of wine, the state government of Pennsylvania has begun trials for a system that could eventually be rolled out in grocery stores across the region, where consumers are forced to scan their ID, perform a breathalyzer test, and stare into a surveillance camera before a government employee approves their purchase.

“A customer chooses a wine on a touch-screen display, swipes an ID, blows into an alcohol sensor (no contact with the machine is required) and looks into a surveillance camera. A state employee in Harrisburg remotely approves the sale after verifying the buyer isn’t drunk and matches the photo ID,” reports the Associated Press[2].

The zombie public, completely unaware of how having to prove that they are a good citizen before obtaining government permission to buy something has no place in a free country and is a slippery slope to draconian measures of control over the individual, expressed their approval at this new level of serfdom.

“This is just convenient one-stop shopping,” said Darby Golec, 28, of Enola. “It’ll be nice to have it all in one area.”

Others called the system “Big Brother” and pointed out that it creates a dangerous imbalance between the state and the citizen.

“The process is cumbersome and assumes the worst in Pennsylvania’s wine consumers — that we are a bunch of conniving underage drunks,” said Keith Wallace, president and founder of The Wine School of Philadelphia.

For decades, those who feared the “mark of the beast” were derided as Christian nutjobs when they warned of a system being introduced that would mandate people to prove they were a loyal citizen before being allowed to purchase anything. Citing the Book of Revelation 13:17-18, the following passage has often been brought up in the context of government moves to regulate how people make purchases.

“And that no man might buy or sell, save he that had the mark, or the name of the beast, or the number of his name. Here is wisdom. Let him that hath understanding count the number of the beast: for it is the number of a man; and his number is Six hundred threescore and six.”

While for the moment, the ID necessary to make a purchase in Pennsylvania remains a drivers license, in five or ten years it could well be the implantable microchip. Indeed, as we highlighted several years ago now[4], trendy nightclubs in places like Barcelona require patrons wishing to access the VIP area of the club to receive a Verichip implant which is also used to keep a database of their drinks purchases.

When Alex Jones interviewed Baja Beach Club owner Conrad Chase, he related a story of how Verichip CEO Dr. Keith Bolton had told him that the Verichip was destined to become the global implantable identity system.

“The objective of this technology is to bring an ID system to a global level that will destroy the need to carry ID documents and credit cards,” Chase said during a 2002 conference.

In 2008, we learned that the Bilderberg Group[6], the quasi-secret organization of global power brokers that meets annually to plot the course of world affairs, had called for humans to be microchipped en masse in the name of weeding out “terrorists”.

Investigative journalist Jim Tucker’s source told him that Bilderberg discussed introducing the system under the pretext of fighting terrorism whereby the “good guys” would be allowed to travel freely from airports so long as their microchip could be scanned and the information stored in a database.

Similarly, before his death Hollywood director and documentary filmmaker Aaron Russo told Alex Jones[7] that Nick Rockefeller had who personally told him that the elite’s ultimate goal was to create a microchipped population.

During one conversation, Rockefeller asked Russo if he was interested in joining the Council on Foreign Relations (CFR) but Russo rejected the invitation, saying he had no interest in “enslaving the people” to which Rockefeller coldly questioned why he cared about the “serfs.”

“I used to say to him what’s the point of all this,” said Russo, “you have all the money in the world you need, you have all the power you need, what’s the point, what’s the end goal?” to which Rockefeller replied (paraphrasing), “The end goal is to get everybody chipped, to control the whole society, to have the bankers and the elite people control the world.”

So presumably those who refuse to take the “mark” or the microchip will eventually be ostracized from society and be forced to live on the fringes of existence.
